My plan so far is to put the Saltzman enlarger, part by part over several months to be picked up and discarded by our local, most excellent trash disposal people. Of course with advance notice.

Way back when in 1983 we came to the decision to discontinue the Combina 35mm and roll film developing tanks.Originally Posted by Jac@stafford.net
We had all of the molds in the front part of our warehouse and set up a line to discard them in our dumpster. So we rolled the dumpster to a loading dock door. I would take a mold down and roll it to the warehouse manager who would give it an additional push to the dock door where our president would pick it up and toss it into the dumpster.
We had lots of molds and after they were all in the dumpster the three of us rolled it back to where it would normally be.
A couple of days later the garbage truck came, picked up the dumpster and emptied it into the truck, with a tremendously loud crash!
The driver got out and looked in the back of his truck, then he knocked on our dock entrance and looked in the warehouse. He told the warehouse manager that we should be careful as since we obviously did not have molding machines and what he could see were just cartons of photo equipment he wanted to warn us that someone had loaded our dumpster up with steel molds and almost broke the lift mechanism on his truck!
We told him that we would keep an eye out!
